title: [Atypical reconstruction of shunt in treatment of hydrocephalus combined with isolated intracranial arachnoid cysts (transtentorial and sylvian fissure)].
abstract: The paper describes a case of treatment of 4-year old male patient with rare combination of 2 intracranial arachnoid cysts with hydrocephalus. First surgery (VP-shunt) was performed in the age of 10 months. 3 years later decompensation resulted in seizures. Detailed non-invasive visualization of intracranial CSF compartments was achieved by multispiral CT scans. Selection of surgical treatment was complicated. Reoperation and atypical shunting resulted in balanced relationships of intracranial volumes and steady clinical improvement.
